South Carolina defensive coordinator Lorenzo Ward said Wednesday the All-American defensive end and reigning Hendricks Award winner Jadeveon Clowney could be shut down for the remainder of the sessions because of neck and back pain and a "slight concussion." Ward said in a phone interview with ESPN...

He will not pull himself back on the field this year. That's not how he practices or plays. He will be full bore in the fall."

Clowney told reporters Tuesday...
